(5,646 posts)Got soap shoved in my mouth plenty of times by my grandma, mother and babysitter.
As far as I know, my current soap does not have lye in it, so there is that. But I no longer eat soap either. lol
I do not see any harm in not rinsing my middle filter material as well as I was since there is another layer between and I do use organic soap without lye. In my case I know who makes the soap and what they put in it.
The tiny amount of particles I might breathe in are nothing more than what I breathe in while washing my hair or body during a shower...in fact, they are most likely a lot less than during a shower as the soap particles are aerosolized and the space you are in is confined.
To be clear; I am not suggesting anyone ingest soap. The article stands for what it is.
